Time is Running out

Source Accessed at 7:40 pm on October 28th

This article was about how McCain has a slim to none chance of winning this presidential election. Chris Kofinis, John Edward's aid said, "At this point John McCain is climbing Mt. Everest without oxygen. The battleground map could not look worse for a Republican." He is absolutely correct. Obama is winning states that Bush captured last election. The main reason Obama is winning by so much is because democrats are coming out of shadows and voting in big numbers.

"McCain has to pull off a political miracle the likes of which has not occurred since modern political polling began," said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University poll. He has plenty of chances to find electoral votes in states won by Bush, like Florida, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, Missouri, Indiana and Colorado. "If he loses any of those states he's toast," Brown said.

Pretty much, McCain is done. Sad to say, but it's reality. I guess I'm happy for Obama because he won, but it just sucks. Back to the article; I feel that this article did not have any framing, just facts. Reuters has done a great job all election of telling the facts and not framing the truth very much. I really appreciate that I was able to follow this source. If I were to have followed a source that was being framed each week, I wouldn't have an unbiased decision like i have know.

Of course everyone is talking about this. Especially the Obama supporters. They have nothing but to talk about how the election is pretty much done. They keep rubbing it in my face and making sure I don't forget. It's all bullocks.
